    I sang them "Sometimes..." and they loved it, because of the meaning. To me its much more than a song from Bono to his his late father, but a song with an overall message. That forever who we may have a strained relationship with, we will always appreciate them for how they changed our lives.


    I get that, but....I just think the lyrics could have been better, that's all.

    Bono's dad was an opera singer.... and thats the reason its in the song. To not include that in the song, it just loses purpose.

    oh,

    The song is in my top 10.

    yeah, i know the story behind the song. It just doesn't flow like some of Bono's other great lyrical songs. I especially hate that he fits 4 notes into the word "why" in that phrase. Kills me every time.

    ok... but in lighter news, I made a joke bet with my friend at the start of the season.

    If Tampa Bay were in first by the end of April, he would pay me $1

    If the Red Sox were in first by the end of April, I would pay him $1.

    I lost the bet, because TB were 1 game out. Then the Red Sox had a mini slump, and my friend still jokes about my prediction:

    "I bet Tampa bay does well this year"
